Initially data was matched using an extraction from the Australian Honours List, and then matched back to wikiedia and wikipedia (see section below - TO DO - ADD LINK).
Once initial analysis was done, Alex Lum assisted in providing an extraction of wikipedia pages where an order was stated on the page.

What is the breakdown by state?

What is the rate of creation of pages? Has there been peaks? Has it slowed at any time?
These are just small things I find along the way that may not be that important, but are intersting or that I need to follow up on
